The olny dedicated deer&? rifle I currently own, is a remington 700, 7mm08. The load Im useing is a 154gr hornady w/ 48gr H4350 (about 2600fps) I bought a ton of these bullets cause they were on sale but they shoot really good in my gun. My range only goes out to 200yds but zeroed 1" high @ 100yds, puts me about 3" low at 200. I can put 3 quick shots in a paper plate at 200, just resting the forend. For where I hunt, I cant ask for more. Ive only killed 1 deer w/ this rifle. Ive killed most of my other deer w/ my savage .50 and my bow. here's my 7-08Name:  09 708 doe 006.jpg
